Vaporizers (Optional)

®
The Dräger Vapor anesthetic agent vaporizers are
used to enrich the fresh gas with a precisely metered
quantity of vapor from the liquid anesthetic agent
being used, i.e. Isoflurane, Halothane, Enflurane,
Sevoflurane, or Desflurane.
When using a Desflurane vaporizer, it must be
connected to mains power. The auxiliary power outlet
(IEC/EN 60320-2-2/F) near the vaporizer exclusion
system is provided for that purpose.
For complete information, consult the appropriate
Instructions for Use provided with the vaporizer.
Note:
Do not mount the vaporizer park holder close
to the operable vaporizer.

Vaporizer Exclusion Systems

The exclusion systems available for the Apollo are
described below.

Dräger Vapor Interlock 2 System
(Optional)
The Dräger Interlock 2 system is used to ensure that
only one of two vaporizers can be used at a time. It
has a selector lever used to select which vaporizer is
enabled.
Moving the selector lever away from the desired
vaporizer allows that vaporizer to be used and the
other to be locked out of use.
Note that the selector lever (1 in
the center position. This ensures that both vaporizers
are in the locked position. Also, this is the
recommended position for the selector lever when
moving the Apollo.

Selectatec (Optional)

The interlock system for the Selectatec is built into
the vaporizers. When a vaporizer is selected for use,
the interlocking index pins will protrude from the
sides of the vaporizer thereby not allowing the
adjacent vaporizer to be opened. For more specific
information on the Selectatec, refer to the Selectatec
Vaporizer's instruction manual.
